In the United States, the Senate has to approve all nominations by a simple majority. This means that nominations can be blocked by a filibuster unless there is also a filibuster-proof majority (60%), but the President can also temporarily make appointments without approval if Congress is in recess (though the Senate still has to approve it before the end of the *next* session, or it will be nullified).
Senate Uh hey.. I have a cross word with this question: The President _______ judges and cabniet members. I'm going to assume that is the answer.. But sadly it wasn't.. There is two empty spaces.. Please help? Lol kay thanks~
The president is responsible for appointing justices, who then must be approved by the Senate.

The Constitution requires the Senate to ratify treaties. Until the Senate approves them, they are not in force. The Senate does not automatically approve all treaties that the President sends to them.
The President has sole authority to select and nominate US Supreme Court justices, but this power is checked by the Senate, which must approve the nominee by a simple majority vote (51%) before the President can make an official appointment.

The Senate must approve these nominations in order for them to take effect.
The Constitution provides that certain nominations of the President of the United States are subject to "Advice and Consent" of the United States Senate. The House of Representatives has no role in this process. When the President makes an appointment - the party takes office immediately and does not require confirmation. Other than certain offices, such as for federal Judges and military officers and other high offices, most Presidential patronage does not require confirmation. About 1 in 10 of the President's selections for office do require confirmation by the Senate.
